David Gates & Bread Aubrey Lyrics

And Aubrey was her name,A not so very ordinary girl or name.But who's to blame?For a love that wouldn't bloomFor the hearts that never played in tune.Like a lovely melody that everyone can sing,Take away the words that rhyme itdoesn't mean a thing.

And Aubrey was her name.We tripped the light and danced together to the moon,But where was June.No it never came around.If it did it never made a sound,Maybe I was absent or was listening to fast,Catching all the words, but thenthe meaning going past,

But God I miss the girl,And I'd go a thousand timesaround the world just to beCloser to her than to me.

And Aubrey was her name,I never knew her, but I loved her just the same,I loved her name.Wish that I had found the wayAnd the reasons that would make her stay.I have learned to lead a life apart from all the rest.If I can't have the one I want,I'll do without the best.

But how I miss the girlAnd I'd go a million times aroundthe world just to sayShe had been mine for a day.
